“I went to Oregon to study permaculture and lived in an eco-village for a month outside Eugene. It’s called Lost Valley. It was amazing and precisely what I needed, considering there had been the Juno thing, where you’re getting a lot of attention,” Page says. “You’re learning how to live in a holistic way with the cycles of the Earth. At one point I was digging goat (manure)

and putting it into a wheelbarrow, and while shoveling it, I just went, ‘Oh, my God, that is precisely what I want to be doing right now.’ ”
